Morris was impressive in his debut, winning four straight matches, including three with bonus points, to reach the 174 lbs. semifinals. His first collegiate victory came via a 16-0 tech-fall over Cortland's Joe Cataldo, with an 8-0 major decision against Maryland's Phil Rubilotto and a 9-0 major over Boston University's Colin Saunders to follow. The freshman earned a close 4-3 decision versus Cornell's Jesse Shanaman to advance to the semi's, but was knocked off by Penn State's Matt Brown, ranked third in the country, 13-3. Morris rebounded with a 10-3 major against Nick Corba of CSU before being pulled from the consolation finals for precautionary reasons.

Grimaldi opened his first collegiate tournament with a bang, registering three straight decisions to reach the quarterfinals of the 157 lbs. bracket. Grimaldi lost a heartbreaker to No. 13 Nestor Taffur of Boston University, 11-10, to be knocked from the championship bracket, but rebounded with a 9-4 victory over Cortland's Chris Sarro before exiting the tournament with a 4-2 mark.

Gobbo also reached the quarterfinals with a pair of decisions at 165 lbs. The sophomore first knocked off Stevens Institute's Connor Bass, 10-4, before taking out Penn State's Garrett Hammond, 9-6. Gobbo, like Grimaldi, lost by a single point in the quarters, 7-6 to Lock Haven's Jake Kemerer, and finished with a 3-2 record after picking up another win in the wrestleback bracket.
